1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

aimThis study investigated the effect of elevated blood lipid levels on myocardial injury in rats with myocardial infarction. MATERIALS AND

methodsSprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly assigned to six groups (n=9 per group): normal, sham, acute myocardial infarction (AMI), AMI+30% high-fat (HF), AMI+70% HF, AMI+100% HF and AMI+100% HF+PD (atorvastatin treatment). After 3 weeks of dietary intervention or treatment, serum and heart tissue samples were collected. Serum concentrations of triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) were measured. Myocardial pathologic changes were examined using H&E staining. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was evaluated using the TUNEL assay, andcaspase-3 and caspase-12 protein expression levels in myocardial tissue were determined using western blot analysis.

resultsCompared to the normal group, TG, TC, LDL, LDH, CK-MB and cTnI levels were significantly increased, whereas HDL levels were significantly decreased in the AMI+30% HF, AMI+70% HF and AMI+100% HF groups. These changes were accompanied by a significant increase in cardiomyocyte apoptosis and marked pathological deterioration of myocardial tissue. By contrast, atorvastatin supplementation markedly improved lipid profiles and cardiac function and reduced cardiomyocyte apoptosis.

conclusionsAlterations in blood lipid levels are closely associated with cardiac dysfunction and myocardial injury following AMI
